Web Query Connection
Bring weather data into Microsoft Excel using Web Query Connections. With just a few clicks, users can paste in a URL query string and pull Historical Weather, 15-day Weather Forecast or Historical Climate Data into any workbook or worksheet.
The Visual Crossing Web Query Feed is fully integrated with the Excel Web Query functionality and provides a Weather Query URL Builder that allows users to construct weather queries from an easy-to-use interface. Power Query users can take advantage of the parameterized query support allowing workbook users to easily enter their own locations, dates and more without modifying the query string.
Import from file
A common method for loading data into Excel is by opening saved data files. Visual Crossing’s Weather Data Query Builder allows you to build your weather query dynamically with an interactive web-based interface. You can preview the data and then download it directly to your local machine in industry standard CSV or XLSX formats.
Use our XLSX downloads directly in Excel for analysis and sharing with your team. Combine weather data with your existing business data or planning processes to help your business make better decisions using weather insights.
Weather for Power BI
Users of Microsoft Power BI can utilize the same query as Microsoft Excel capability to pull weather data directly into a more powerful tool for deeper analysis. All Visual Crossing data is delivered in a report and dashboard-ready format. Columns and Rows are organized properly and ready for aggregation or slicing. This eliminates an expensive ETL step for ad hoc analysts that want to get data quickly and find the answers they need.
